Naval Aviation in Space Ltd Ed Print Signed by Armstrong & 8 other Astronauts
For sale is a limited edition watercolor collage by artist/Naval aviator (and former Blue Angels pilot) R. Rasmussen entitled Naval Aviation in Space. This color lithograph print (#819/1000) is signed in pencil by nine pioneering astronauts, all former Naval aviators, representing all of NASA’s space programs (Mercury, Gemini, Apollo, Skylab, and Space Shuttle System). Many of these signatures are rare and collectible (Neil Armstrong & three other moonwalkers, of which there are only twelve total). Neil Armstrong (Gemini 8; and Commander of Apollo 11, during which mission he became the first person to walk on the moon). Charles “Pete” Conrad Gemini 5; Commander of Gemini 11; Commander of Apollo 12, during which he became the third person to walk on the moon; and Commander of Skylab 2, the first crewed Skylab mission, during which he and his crewmates repaired significant damage to the Skylab space station. For this, President Jimmy Carter awarded him the Congressional Space Medal of Honor in 1978. Alan Shepard (Mercury astronaut, becoming the first American in space in 1961; and Commander of Apollo 14, during which he became the fifth person to walk on the moon). Gene Cernan (Gemini 9; Apollo 10; and Commander of Apollo 17, during which he became the last person to walk on the moon). Jack Lousma (Skylab 3; and Commander of STS-3, the third Space Shuttle mission). John Glenn (Mercury astronaut, becoming the first American to orbit the Earth). James Lovell (Gemini 7; Gemini 12; Command Module Pilot on Apollo 8, the first flight to/around the moon; and Commander of Apollo 13). Wally Schirra (the only astronaut to fly in the Mercury, Gemini, and Apollo programs). Rick Hauck (STS-7; Commander of STS-51-A; and Commander of STS-26, the first Space Shuttle flight after the Challenger tragedy). The nine astronauts were part of a symposium held at the Naval Aviation Museum in 1989. Rasmussen, curator and museum artist, published this print as a fundraiser for the museum, and the astronauts signed each one after a ceremonial dinner, all of them sitting at a table, passing each print to the next signer. The print itself measures 22″ x 29″ and is professionally matted and framed (the total size with frame is 25-1/2″ x 32″). The print, acid-free matte, lightweight metal frame, and UV protected glass are in flawless condition. This print comes with the original National Museum of Naval Aviation COA.
